    Snippet: Secondly, our study showed the existence of a strong association between pneumonia severity and performance of diagnostic testing, in accordance with IDSA/ATS and ERS recommendations. As a consequence, pneumonia severity was also associated with an increased probability of pathogen detection. Exploring the true determinants of pathogen detection would have required a systematic and universal testing strategy and, for this reason, it was out of th.....
